Really cool game!

Try mine, http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-31/?action=preview&uid=44154

Nice and simple game.
It really tests your patience. It is so frustrating when you are about to finish and mess up!

Really nice game, it has a certain atmosphere. But it's also quite frustrating.
Anyway, nice work :D

I like the feel of this game, and the pictures are really cool. But there's a lot of frustration when the entire picture resets for one mistake.

Nice-looking (and sounding), but very frustrating. For a rhythm game, the actual rhythm is very de-emphasized. This needs either pulsing music and flashing (ruining the mood) or doing away with rhythm mechanics.

I love this! I wish it were more forgiving. Having more than one strike before I'm out would make it so much more playable. But the look, the mood, and the use of the theme are great!

Really elegant and beautiful. I wish it was longer. I think you could tell very nice stories with this.

Great concept, but I found it too frustrating. Maybe I just have no patience.

I didn't get it at all, sometimes I got it right, sometimes I didn't, but I don't know why. Nice graphics and audio!

I love the atmosphere of this! It was very aesthetically pleasing. I wish there were less objects to click on.

solifuge 2014-12-10 07:58

This is such an aesthetically gorgeous game! I didn't find it too hard, though I did have to start over to read the rules. The sound design is so nice and the SFX fit perfectly. I even found myself wishing for more levels... great job.

Thanks for the game!

Beautiful, interesting animations and pictures and a trying exercise in patience. I found it more enjoyable when I forced myself to not look at the timer.

ekilibr 2014-12-11 01:31

Great mood, and nice pictures!
I join others, I wish I had more than one chance to make it before I loose.
Great, and original concept, though. Well done!

seraphki 2014-12-12 06:31

Nice mood, lovely UI, and soothing music. Well done =]

Very nice art, sounds and overall feeling for the game. Release it on Google Play, that's a good game!

Cool game - I like the mode and the graphics but like most others found it to be quite frustrating to play

I'm not really a fan of games like these. I'm not going to lie. I probably would have been a bigger fan if the instructions were less contradictory. It says "Be patient" and all that, but instead of the counter restarting you have to start over. I understand being rhythmic and having to click at the end of each cycle, but don't say "Be patient if you can't" And then start them over (although that is a different kind of patience). I will say it was a very nice looking game, and the sounds were great. I may not play your post compo version (if you make one) but I hope to see you make more games.

Interesting game. High on innovation. I feel confused about the ultimate objective. Is it merely a matter of uncovering the pictures?

toadfrogs 2014-12-20 15:09

"Is it merely a matter of uncovering the pictures?"
Yes, because the game is about recovering the inverted pictures. The photographer uses it to interpret on what it is :D

chaoseed 2014-12-20 16:25

It's kind of confusing. The instructions, I don't know, but something about them just makes them unclear. Eventually I figured out how to do it, I think...but it seems to be VERY unforgiving. I spent 5 minutes on it, not getting more than 3 or 4 'clears' before I did something wrong and it reset. I think it's cool that you seem to be going for a specific mood, but I was never really able to get into the game enough to feel it...

rodobodolfo 2014-12-20 16:26

Really nice game! a bit hard thought

boxedmeatrevolution 2014-12-20 20:14

Cool game, great mood and calming gameplay.

snickersnacks 2014-12-27 06:40

The game wasn't my style but I can tell it is unique, completely fresh and well made. The sound effects and music were perfect. The reset sound is still stuck in my head.

stasss 2014-12-28 01:31

Wow! Great art and sound work.Atthe beggining was a little bit confusing, but overall loosk great

igoramendola 2014-12-28 05:14

It is a nice game and I'm still trying to pass the picture 2 hahaha. Definitely patience is required. The idea is quite innovative and fits well with the theme. Also, has nice graphics and sounds. Nice work ^_^

goro 2014-12-28 07:30

Great game! I love it, but it's really stirring!

kualitygames 2014-12-28 09:59

Nice game, just thought the rythm would be the same as the music, also quite annoying that the whole pic resets for just one mistake.

I had to load the game twice to make sense of it: instructions should be up front in the splash screen and credits send to the end of the game. Also the first picture (level, I guess) could be a lot easier. Sound and music are fine.
